It was a year after Skip's 1st ascent of this long standing Eldo test-piece that I was able to get up the nerve to repeat it. With climber Rick Derckson, ready to haul in the lines should I fall off the intricate headwall above the lip, I managed in a most feightning way to reach the top. Mark Wilford on an early attempt, sent the crux headwall only to retreat to a point where he jumped off, he came inches from the slab below, had he not down climbed he may have decked.
